Full Armor IV: Testimony
This guest article was written and submitted by Rebecca Wong, a graduate of the Full Armor Leaders Course IV in the Fall of 2021. A fitness enthusiast and faith-seeker, she joined this community to grow in both to lead, manage and exercise with full strength. The following is her testimony of her experience.
Dry Bones Rise
At the end of October, a select group of leaders who have graduated from our Full Armor Leaders Course gathered in Southern California as the core fitness leadership team for a Beautifully Flawed Foundation event. “Gym Day” was a culmination of a 5-day experience for young men and women with physical disabilities of limb loss or limb differences as a call to action in living out the purpose of their testimony - learning to exercise the power of their confidence and capabilities not despite of, but because of their stories.
For Freedom
This is freedom to be the truest, most authentic, empowered version of yourself possible. This is a freedom that no external, worldly circumstance or experience can offer.
Exercise for Addiction Recovery
Exercise and general whole-body fitness help people fight addiction. When the goal is overall health and well-being, harmful behaviors can be effectively forced out of the picture. When exercise and healthy living are combined, sustainable substance-free existence is possible for almost anyone.
The Forget Men's Retreat: Recap with Erik Thorson
Erik Thorson, a CrossFit Level 3 Trainer, was invited to serve on behalf of Point One Vision at The Forge men's retreat for limb loss in Kauai. We were honored by the gift of his time and the heart to explore the width and depth of the unknown. We asked Erik to respond to a few questions about his time in Kauai and what he learned from this experience.
